Services

Your Crawlspace Doctor will remove all the components in your crawl space that will cause moisture such as leaking pipes, broken dryer vents and ground water entering through the foundation. A proper vapor barrier is then installed to prevent moisture evaporating from the soil into the home.

HUMIDITY CONTROL

Within recent years, the building codes that once required the installation of foundation vents have been reversed. This is because foundation vents actually help to increase the level of humidity in most crawl spaces.

Crawlspace Doctor has developed systems to control the humidity in your crawl space, eliminating the conditions that allow for mold and mildew growth.

CONTROL MOLD GROWTH

Crawlspace Doctor has developed systems to control humidity within your crawl space and eliminate warm, moist conditions necessary for mold to grow.

VAPOR BARRIERS

Your Crawlspace Doctor will install a proper vapor barrier, both inside and out, that is necessary to prevent moisture from evaporating from the soil and accumulating on the wooden structures of your home.

DRAINAGE SYSTEMS

Your Crawlspace Doctor will install a proper drainage system to prevent excessive humidity by preventing water from accumulating in your crawl space after it has been encapsulated.

INSULATION

Your Crawlspace Doctor will remove any damaged and/or infested fiberglass insulation, as well as any foundation vents that only work against insulation by letting cold air through. Styrofoam insulation will then be installed, protecting water pipes from freezing and keeping cold air from the floor of your home.

FLOOR SUPPORTS

Your Crawlspace Doctor will evaluate the condition of existing piers, examining the spacing and length of floor joists, and deterioration of wooden members, all of which if left in poor condition can lead to unstable floors. Floor supports will be installed in their place to improve the stability of the floor of your home.

CRAWLSPACE DOORS

Your Crawlspace Doctor will install a crawl space door that keeps out any insects, rodents or mold from accessing the insulation inside. It will also keep access to the crawl space clean and free from hazardous debris.

DEBRIS REMOVAL

Your Crawlspace Doctor will remove all debris in the crawl space, increasing the health of your home. Cellulose debris can be a food source for insects and mold.

Debris can be harborage for insects and rodents and can also injure people as they enter the crawl space to perform routine maintenance.
